Greyhounds benefit from poker run fundraiser
The Tri-State’s Chapter of Greyhound Pets of America hosted a poker run fundraiser Sunday afternoon. The organization helps find homes for greyhound dogs once they retire from the race track. The animals are first placed in foster care, so they can adjust to pet life before being placed in a permanent home.
